Over eleven months, Tang Siyang engineered core reliability and data management features for the apache/doris repository, focusing on schema evolution, compaction, and distributed data integrity. He implemented concurrency-safe schema-change workflows, enhanced compaction logic, and improved file cache reliability using C++ and SQL. His work included refining cloud schema-change operations, enforcing materialized view safety, and stabilizing CI/test automation. By addressing race conditions, metadata consistency, and error handling, Tang reduced operational risk and improved cluster stability. He also contributed to documentation and configuration management, ensuring that technical changes were well-documented and maintainable. The depth of his contributions strengthened Doris’s backend robustness.

Monthly performance summary for 2025-10 focused on reliability and fault-tolerance improvements in apache/doris. Key work included stabilizing segcompaction during data import and enabling remote rowset fetching to support fault-tolerant read-write splitting. The changes reduce crash risk, prevent data-access failures in mixed-version clusters, and improve overall data availability. Implementations were performed in the C++ data import and rowset management paths with accompanying unit/integration tests.

September 2025: Focused on correctness and reliability in security-related features for Apache Doris. This month centered on a targeted bug fix in the TDE encryption key version display to ensure administrators see the actual version number rather than a derived boolean value. No new features were delivered this month; the emphasis was on quality, correctness, and maintainability of security-critical components.

June 2025 monthly summary for apache/doris focused on reliability and data integrity under high concurrency. Delivered two critical bug fixes that strengthen correctness in core data paths and reduce operational risk under peak workloads: - Thread-safety improvement for compaction score calculation in BaseTablet.cpp by adding a read lock to get_real_compaction_score, preventing race conditions when computing score and updating metadata. Commit: 7d7528c97272b9b954a48b08ea73096e3f2ec4ce. - Robustness improvement in metadata conversion: conditional load ID copying to ensure the load ID is only copied when present in input rowset meta, preventing errors during metadata conversion. Commit: 7f2c0c312556ce1fc77164026c0150330adc3dbf. Impact and accomplishments: - Improves data consistency and stability under concurrent access, reducing risk of incorrect compaction scoring and metadata corruption. - Enhances reliability of the load/rowset processing pipeline, contributing to lower operational toil during high-volume runs. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - C++ concurrency control (read-lock integration) - Defensive programming for metadata handling - Focus on core data paths to improve reliability and maintainability.
